193 Persuasion

Yuki Tomino looked at the young man next to him who took the initiative to talk to him, and asked, "Do you know me?" Also doing animation? ”

"Well, it's half the industry."

Yuki Tomino didn't know if he had found someone to talk to, he glanced at "True Demon God ZERO", which was being broadcast on TV, and sighed: "The current animation industry is controlled by a group of bastards who don't want to make progress, only know how to please the audience, and their minds are full of money. Why was the "Demon God Z" series popular with readers back then? Because it pioneered the model of 'humans sitting on robots and fighting'. But today, "Demon God Z" has so many series, it's still the same old, and it's complete rubbish! ”

"But the audience likes it."

"You can't say that! We, the animation creators, should not be led by the audience's interest, but should lead them! Tomino Yuyuki immediately refuted Qin Han.

Qin Han knew that this bald guy had a bit of a stubborn temper, and he was a well-known troll in the industry in his previous life, so he didn't have the same knowledge as him, so he just nodded and changed the topic by the way.

"Where does Tomino-san work now? Since you want to make an animation that doesn't fall into clichΓ©s, why not start doing it right away? ”

Tomino's bald head seemed to be poked in the sore spot by Qin Han's words.

He craned his neck, drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, and said quietly: "I also want to do a career, but in a place like Toei, it's difficult!" Back then, I was also a member of the insect production, but now, I'm still a nobody. ”

"Toei Animation?" Qin Han was a little surprised.

In another world, Yuki Tomino didn't work at Toei Animation, and it seems that this is the difference of another parallel world.

It was rare for Yuki Tomino to meet someone like Qin Han who was willing to chat with him, and when the wine came up, he chattered about his work experience.

Maruyama Masao and Hiroshi Wakao, the main forces of insect production back then, are now all uncles who sit around and run around, and Yuki Tomino, although younger than them, is also in his early forties. But no matter how bad the other two are, at least they are the presidents of the animation company. And Tomino's bald head is just a performer in Toei Animation's production studio.

In this position, the main job is to interpret the storyboards drawn by the supervisor, conceive the details of the specific picture, direct the photography and the original painting, and produce the animation together. Basically, a show is a small supervisor, located in the middle of the animation industry pyramid, not comparable to a position such as a supervisor or producer.

After Yuki Tomino left Insect Production, he worked for a while in an advertising agency and was also a lecturer at the Tokyo Design College.

After that, he returned to the animation industry and took on storyboard outsourcing work as a freelancer.

Then, the trajectory of Tomino's life was different from his previous life. He did not join Soeisha, the predecessor of Sunrise, but entered Toei Animation.

This is about another typical case of taking a wrong step and making a mistake for life.

It's no wonder that there is no Gundam in this world. It turns out that the father of "Gundam" is still struggling to survive in Toei.

Qin Han sighed at the impermanence of fate in his heart and asked, "Tomino-san, since you are not happy in Toei and feel that you can't display your talents, have you ever thought about leaving?" I think that with your qualifications and abilities, there will be many animation companies vying for the title. ”

Yuki Tomino laughed at himself and said, "It's not for this. ”

He gave Qin Han a gesture of money.

"I have a wife and children to support, what if I quit my job and my income drops. Toei paid me a decent salary. Besides, can you guarantee that when I go to other animation clubs, I will be able to do the animation I want? For the sake of money, I'm afraid those presidents will continue to do those boring things. ”

Well, Qin Han couldn't refute the other party's words.

No matter how beautiful the ideal is, it must be compromised in the face of reality.

However, with such a great god in the animation industry in his previous life sitting in front of him, shouldn't he do something? Don't you take him for your own use?

This is like meeting a general with a military command of more than 90 in the Three Kingdoms era, and the other party happens to be unknown and has not yet become famous. As a traverser, shouldn't he be recruited under his command?

Qin Han decided to persuade Tomino to be bald and let him abandon the darkness and turn to the light.

Didn't Toei Animation poach a famous art director from SHAFT? Then I'll dig up Yuki Tomino from Toei!

This deal, not a loss.

Qin Han thought about his rhetoric and began his own persuasion operation.

"Tomino-san, if you want to make innovative and interesting animations, why don't you follow me? The question of money is easy to say, how much salary does Toei give you, and I will give you 1.5 times! ”

"You?" Tomino Yu Ji stared at Qin Han suspiciously.

Originally, he thought that this kind of young man in his early twenties was at best the original artist of an animation company. He just said so much, in addition to complaining, he also wanted to tell his life experience, so that young people can have a reference and avoid detours in the future.

But now, listening to the other party's tone, if it wasn't for joking and playing himself, then this young man's identity might not be ordinary.

"Can I ask your name?" Tomino Yuki asked solemnly.

"Qin Han. The main business is drawing comics.,But I also make games.,Recently, I was invited by Shaft President Hiroshi Wakao.,Took over the job of animation screenwriter.。 ”

"Ah, I know, the Qin Han who painted "Dragon Cherry"!" Yuki Tomino suddenly realized. Although he hadn't seen "Dragon Sakura", the Chinese name Qin Han was too recognizable, so he was very impressed.

Moreover, in recent times, his boss Hiroshi Okada, who often mocks SHAFT, who tries to make an original magical girl animation, also mentions this name from time to time.

"I heard that SHAFT is going to do a magical girl anime?"

"Yes. We happen to have excellent animation talents, why don't you come along? Qin Han felt that his tone was like persuading an ignorant girl to sign a contract to become the unscrupulous pyramid scheme leader of a magical girl.

"Not interested. No matter how innovative I am, I'm not interested in magical girls. Tomino said slowly.

Qin Han smiled: "I know, what you really want to do is robot animation, right?" ”

Yuki Tomino nodded, and a bald head shone brightly in the light of the izakaya.

"I want to make a different robot animation, which is completely different from the current sub-supply robots that fight with special moves!"

"I think that way, too! Actually, I have an idea that I've been thinking about for a long time, would Tomino-san want to hear it? ”

Without waiting for the other party to answer, Qin Han asked the proprietress for paper and pen, and then drew on the narrow bar.

After a while, a robot with its iconic V-shaped antenna appeared on the already wine-stained paper.
